I am a full-stack developer by day and educator/ Japanese translator by night. I love creating software, learning, and working with agile teams. I am passionate about getting to the heart of the matter, improving efficiency and productivity, and pretty much everything tech-related. I have vast experience in education and translation, a background in finance, and believe the sky's the limit in what you can achieve if you put your mind to it. In my spare time, you can find me with a good book or power walking.
